We’re not sure about you, but we’re not sure we could be more excited for Pokemon Legends: Arceus. It’s the start of a whole new series for the Pokemon franchise, with a brand new way to play that it’s never seen before. The idea of exploring feudal Sinnoh is one we can’t stop thinking about - chasing Pokemon around and seeing the sights of a region before its time.

But apparently, we’ve been given plenty more reason to be excited, as some of the preorder bundles for the game have started appearing - and they look brilliant.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus Preorders Feature Figurines And Steelbooks

Pokemon Legends: Arceus Reveals UK Preorder Goodies

The UK preorders for Pokemon Legends: Arceus have finally been revealed, and they come with some incredible bonuses. While stocks last, if you preorder the upcoming game through My Nintendo UK, you’ll bag yourself a free Arceus figurine and gorgeous steelbook too.

The steelbook shows the key art of the game stretched across the entire box, and it looks stunning.

But, don’t worry if you’ve already preordered the game through this site. Any preorder of the game that has been made on My Nintendo UK has automatically been upgraded, so you won’t miss out on the amazing free goodies.

So far, there’s no sign of these items appearing elsewhere, so this could be a UK exclusive bundle. Bag them while you can because they could become seriously rare.

When Is Pokemon Legends: Arceus Coming Out?

The brand new Pokemon title will be coming out next year, but thankfully, it’s pretty early on. The game comes to our shores on 28 January 2022, so make sure your preorders are in before then. You have until this date or until the extra goodies sell out to bag them (though we expect the latter is more likely), so hurry!

Pokemon Legends: Arceus looks to be a grand mix-up of the franchise formula. Coming a long way from the pixelated days of Red and Blue, Kanto is a distant cry. Still, all the magic and monsters that have helped the Pokemon name grow for the past 25 years are sure to be here.

The (Victory) road to an open-world Pokemon game has been a long one, with plenty of hype surrounding Arceus. As the release date looms closer, we can’t wait to get our hands on it - with its extra steelbook and figurine or not.
